another pair, and another! They seem to
be irving to catch one another. Is 1t a

Well, j can't say they give US any
trouble, except sometimes wanting to go

their work, their companions and their
lessons, their ont of door rambles and

his constant care. The home discipline
was never neglected. though it was en-

however, so cordially received that

The vital idea of the Harvard Annex
is to secure for its students the advan-
tages of instruction in regular college
courses by the Harvard faculty, which is
the most numerous, and probably the
ablest, body of instructors gathered in
one locality anywhere in the United
States. The opportunities thus offered
by the annex are, and will remain,
unique. For next year the number of
courses announced is seventy-eight,
to be under the care of forty
eight Harvard professors, assistant
professors and instructors Last year

THE FEAR OF DRAUGHrs.
Foul, Hot Air the Greatest Menace to
Good Health.

Foul, Hot Air the Greatest Menace to
Good Health.
Foul dust in rooms cannot be got rid of
by any amount of sweeping and carpet beat
ing. The only thing that will remove and
replace it is current of comparatively pure
air from the outside. Except in very cold
weather, there should always be two open
windows in each room, on opposite sides.
IF we should follow that advice" the hor-
rified reader will exclaim, 1--WE should all
catch fatal cold. Don't / remember
dozen colds got by being exposed to sud-
den draught2 Only few nights ago, when
OCCUPIED seat near the door of theatre,
the door was left open during the inter-
mission, and the draught, though pleasant
enough, gave me bad cold. No, thank
you. No draughts for mep' This logic
seems good, yet it is utter sophistry. As a
metaphysician would say, the draught was
only the occasion, not the cause, of
the cold. The real cause was the foul, hot
air in the theatre, which demoralized your
skin and relaxed its blood vessels. so that
they were unable to react suddenly and en-
dure the healthful, cool air from the street.
In other words, it was not the draught that
gave you a cold, but the sudden transition
from hot to cold air. Such transition al
ways is injurious to the skin, whether il be
from hot to cold or from cold to hot air. But
If you are not overheated current of cold
air is never injurious. As one of the great
est authorities on hygiene, Professor RECLAIM,
remarks: 'Draughts are not injurious un-
less we are In glow. To~healthy persons
they cannot possibly do so much harm as
the stagnant air in close room. The fear
Of draughts is entirely groundless, though it
AFFECTS most people in a manner which is
simply ludicrous.' It is high time to acqut
draughts of the charge of being the cause Of
our colds and to convict the true culprit.
the injurious hot-house atmosphere in our
rooms. Why do people on river excursions
OF on ocean steamers, where they are ex-
posed to terrible draughts, never "catch
cold? Simply because their skins are not
previously broiled in hot-h ouses.-TAs Epoch.
